2007 Meeting of the Canadian Society for the Study of Names The Society is a member of the Canadian Federation for the Humanities and Social Sciences (CFHSS or FedCan) and traditionally holds its annual meeting in conjunction with the Congress of the Humanities and Social Sciences (formerly the Learned Societies). At the meeting, members may present papers in formal theme sessions, participate in a toponymic fieldtrip and attend the annual general meeting of the Society. The 2007 (41st) meeting will be held at University of Saskatchewan, Saskatoon, Saskatchewan on Saturday, May 26 and Sunday May 27, 2007.
Membership is open to all who share the objectives of the Society. Included in the membership dues is a subscription to Onomastica Canadiana (2 issues each year) and The Name Gleaner, the Society's newsletter (normally 3 issues each year). ( CSSN Membership Form [PDF, 14.1 kb, viewer] )
